Controlling CPU usage on shared serverd.

Hi everyone, I am looking in to finding out how people go about automating the control of excessive CPU usage on their shared servers.

I would like to set up something that when an account hits a certain percentage of CPU usage over set X amount of time their account is either throttled down or something.. not quite sure what the consequence should be. I don't want to suspend an account for something like this but put something in place that will free up that CPU usage as to not slow the server down.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance,

C
